Women in International Affairs

Since 2019, on the occasion of International Women’s Day — established by the United Nations in 1975 — the School of International Studies has hosted an annual series of events dedicated to women in global affairs. Over the years, this initiative has become a well-established appointment in the School’s public engagement calendar.

Bringing together leading scholars and practitioners, the programme provides a platform for dialogue on leadership, global challenges, and the evolving role of women in shaping international politics and policy.

The initiative is organised under the Memorandum of Understanding between the Municipality of Trento and the University of Trento, with the support of the Provincial Commission for Equal Opportunities between Women and Men. The series features three public events, open to students and the wider community.
